Note from the Office of Bad Titles: Ok, I get this one (new from the University of Notre Dame Press) and its relevance to its author (Wilkowski was the first female acting ambassador in Latin America) but c'mon.

Some puns are funny very late at night but should never appear on the cover of a book: Does anyone remember, for instance, the dreaded "Cooking with Pooh"?
